Conch Reef Style Mahi-Mahi Fingers

My last fishing adventure was truely awesome! The ocean gods answered my prayer with a 25 lb. Mahi-Mahi.

The Mahi-Mahi was caught while trolling Conch Reef(identified on the map below).

I call this recipe "Conch Reef Style Mahi-Mahi Fingers".

Ingredients

2 pounds of Mahi-Mahi Fillets; cut into 1” Strips
2 Eggs
2 tablespoons of milk
½ teaspoon of pepper

5 tablespoons of butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 Limes, Halved

2. Whisk together eggs and milk in a small bowl
3. Combine salt, pepper, flour, cumin, garlic, and chili seasoning on a shallow plate.
